About CPLA
The CPLA program is a voluntary post-MLS certification program for public librarians with three years or more of supervisory experience. However, you do not have to be enrolled in the certification program to take advantage of CPLA courses. This series of continuing education programs meets both the requirements for CPLA certification and the needs of librarians wanting to enhance their managerial skills.
